Match Preview

Heys welcome Litherland REMYCA to Adie Moran Park for the final League match of the season.

Litherland arrive safe in the knowledge that they are promoted to the Premier Division but also knowing that they could lift the league title.

They must win today, which would mean Silsden would have to also win their final game at home to Holker Old Boys, this afternoon. A REMYCA win and a draw for Silsden would send the title to Merseyside.

REMYCA have been consistent all season. Suffering only five defeats and scoring 116 goals they have been in or around the top two or three places since August. With the prolific Colin’s, Quirk and McDonald upfront, leading a talented side, they have been able to put behind them their play-off heartache of last season to make the step up this time around.

Heys will be hoping to join them in the top tier next season. They all but secured a third placed finish in the Hallmark Security League Division One with a 6-2 romp at Daisy Hill on Saturday.

It would take a Heys defeat and a Whitchurch win whilst completing a 21 goal turn around in the final round of matches to deny Jon Lyons’ team that spot.

When the teams met in September at REMYCA the hosts won 2-0. With Heys having scored 123 goals this season, an entertaining afternoon looks on the cards between the two top scoring clubs. What price a 0-0 then?
